The age of the bike and glue are working against you, but I'm sure you already know this. That's the main reason why I never fooled with the decals on my 96. Anyway, this guy with a Honda F3 told me how he took his old decals off. His bike looks great. You do see slight fading where the decals use to be.
I was told to use a good cotton bath towel or wax removal pad, becuase you can easily buff out any scratches they may leave. Start with a test small section, maybe on the belly. Get your rag good and wet with gas and dab the glue. Go behind it with alcohol and goo off/gone, then rub a little. Repeat this process, you should eventually see the glue start to break down. Keep your rag/wax pad saturated while you rub. The wetter the better.
Good luck!!! I remember reading how difficult it was for people to get that stuff off.
